NON-RBPILLABLB BOTTLE.
APPLICATION FILED Nov. v. 190s.
Patented Feb. 15, 1910.
HUGH CORRIGAN, OF CLEVELAND, OHIO.
NON-REFILLABLE BOTTLE.
To all whom it may concern:
Be 1t known that I, HUGH ConRieAN, citii zen oit the United States, residing at Cleveland, in the county of Cuyahoga and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Non-Refillable Bottles, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to non-refillable bottles, and has for its object to provide an improved valve arrangement in the neck of the bottle, which will allow the contents of the bottle to be emptied but will prevent refilling of the same.
The invention may be embodied in various forms and constructions, some of which for the purpose of illustration are shown in the accompanying drawings in which Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view of one form; Fig. 2 is a similar view of a modification; Fig. 3 is a perspective view oit a part or section of the valve shown in Fig. 1; Fig. 4: is a perspective of a section of the valve shown in Fig. 2.
Referring specifically to the drawings, 1 indicates the necks of bottles 2. At the base of each neck is an inwardly projecting shoulder or seat 1li which supports the lowest of the valve sections. In Fig. 1 there is a cross disk or partition 13 which rests on said shoulder and has an upwardly projecting rim around an outlet opening 12. Above this is an inverted funnel-shaped piece 11 which has at the top a seat consisting of an outwardly projecting rim 5 at the outer edge of which is an upstanding circular flange 5. Upon this is supported a series of inverted funnel-shaped sections indicated at L each having at the top an outwardly ex tending rim or seat 5 and 5 similar to that on the section 11. These sections are placed one upon the other to any desired number. At the top of each section is a lflap valve G, pivoted at 7 and arranged to swing or open within the bottom part of the section next above. These valves are hinged at various sides respectively. In other words, the hinges are not in line, but are placed at different angles to the axis of the bottle neck. The lowest valve-section 11 contains a cap valve 8 which is pivotally connected to the disk 13 at 10. This valve is normally held in open position by a piece 9 which is made of rubber or other material capable of being dissolved by acids, for a purpose to be hereinafter described. At the top is an upper outlet tube 21 which is angular or Specification of Letters Patent.

crooked, to prevent the insertion of a wire or other implement, and which connects with the upper valve section #1:, the lower end ot' the tube fitting in the seat at the top of said section. When the parts thus descrlbed are set in place the space between the same and the neck o1 the bottle is filled with cement as indicated at 3, which holds the various parts in position.
In the modification shown in Fig. 2 a series of funnel-shaped sections 1G are set and cemented within the neck. These sections have the form of an irregular truncated cone with flap valves G at the top, and these valves are set out. of line with each other this result being easily effected by means o' the irregularity oiE the tunnels. The funnels are held in place by cement 3, and the valves are pivoted or hinged at 17 to open or close the outlets at the top of the tunnels; and these valves also open or are hinged at various angles. The hinges 17 have npwardly projecting fingers 1G to prevent the valves opening too far.
In operation, when the bottle is inverted, the flap valves 6 swing open and the liquid escapes through said valves. The valves (3 are preferably made o1 rubber or the like. Should acid be poured into the bottle to destroy said valves, it will also dissolve the piece 9 holding the cap valve 8, which is preferably made oi metal or insoluble material, and said cap will drop and close over the opening 12. The `valves shown in Fig. 2 are staggered to prevent a wire or the like being used to open the same. Inasmuch as the valves are hinged at different angles, one or more will always close in whatever position the bottle is placed, thatis, with the neck above the horizontal.
Either of the forms shown, or any other construction embodying the idea ot' the invention, will effectively prevent refilling o1 the bottle either by attempted manipulation oi the bottle or tampering with the valves. By making the device in several separate sections it can be easily and cheaply constructed, and the parts can be quickly assembled in the bottle neck by inserting one section upon or above the other as illustrated.
I claim:
1. Means toV prevent refilling of a bottle comprising a series of separate hollow frusto conical sections fitting one above the other in the bottle neck and stationary with rellU projecting flange, forming a seat for the base of the neXt section above, and a Valve hinged to the top of each section and ar- 15 a ranged to open and close the opening at the said top.
In testimony whereof, I aIiX iny signature in presence of two witnesses. y f
